Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Painful Bump Above The Collar Bone And Discomfort While Swallowing?
I have a bump above my collar bone sometimes it hurts and I m having a hard time swallowing food it gets stuck and it hurts then sometimes I can push the food down with liquid and sometimes it comes back up and I m having a hard time breathing or I gotta stick a finger down my throat to get the food out.
Bump with difficulty in swallowing need urgent evaluation. This may be growth. It may be pressing on your food pipe or problem in your food pipe that has come out like a bump.
In both cases, it's very necessary to be assessed. So have an urgent appointment with your doctor.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Mahboob Ur Rahman , General & Family Physician
